Strike Two for Holbrooke

Obama's special envoy Richard Holbrooke served on A.I.G.'s board
when
the company a)
went "over a cliff," and b)
approved the now-controversial bonuses. But he'll survive. It's not like he also got special loan deals from Countrywide
as a "Friend of Angelo." .... Oh, wait!
... I don't want to know where Holbrooke was when Enron was going down. ... P.S.:
Will the White House now have to force three perfectly well-qualified assistant secretaries to withdraw for triviial resume blemishes in order to make up for keeping Holbrooke on? ... [ Can we say this is "strike three" if you count each Countrywide loan separately?--ed
If you count each Countrywide loan separately it's strike six.] 4:33 A.M.
